Voronezh. --------------------------------------------- January 20, 2020 in the Voronezh region began a full-scale broadcast of "Nashe Radio" - one of the leading Russian radio stations, focused mainly on the music format of "post-Soviet Russian rock." The regional partner of the radio station was the media holding "Gubernia". On December 23, 2019, Nashe Radio started a test broadcast mode in Voronezh, at a frequency of 100.7 FM, where the Gubernia radio station had previously broadcast. And now the test period is over. In addition, Our Radio can be listened to online at nasheradio-vrn.ru. The local information content "Nashe Radio - Voronezh" will be broadcast in regional blocks ... In connection with the start of the regional broadcasting of the radio station Nashe Radio - Voronezh, an exclusive comment was given to our Internet channel by Zoya Gryazeva, general director and editor-in-chief of the media holding Guberniya: - First of all, I want to appeal to all radio listeners - residents of the Voronezh region. Today we have an amazing holiday! The Gubernia media holding has become more powerful and stronger, because Nashe Radio - Voronezh has gone on the air. And I really want this Nashe radio to become YOURS! Surround yourself with our information: we can briefly, fascinatingly and intelligibly talk about politics, business, culture and sports. News of the Voronezh region will be heard every hour. The guests of our broadcasts will be the most interesting people in our region. Our programs will address the most pressing issues related, for example, to the social sphere and housing and communal services. And, of course, you can't do without music in any way! Our favorite songs will be played on air for you: those that sounded in the 80 - 90s of the last century; those whose authors and performers have become almost our relatives - Yuri Shevchuk and DDT, Nautilus Pompilius, Alice and many others ... Nashe radio - Voronezh has come to our region, and I want it to be included in every Voronezh house. Remember this frequency - 100.7 FM.

Magadan. ---------------------------------------------- Says Magadan, January 21, 2020. In Magadan, you can again listen to one of the country's most popular radio stations - Russkoe Radio. Broadcasting at a frequency of 107.1 FM was launched by the only private television and radio company of the Magadan Region - Caribou Media Holding. While broadcasting is in test mode, however, soon "Russkoe Radio" in Magadan will become most useful for radio listeners of the regional center: there will be local news, Magadan weather, advertising from local advertisers and something else. The online newspaper Says Magadan contacted the editor-in-chief of the Caribou media holding, Tatyana Bryce, and this is what she told us: - We have long been walking towards the opening of Russkoe Radio in Magadan. Having overcome all the necessary steps, our media holding managed to launch the test broadcast of Russky on time at a frequency of 107.1. Now, after the final approval of a number of issues, we will soon begin full-fledged broadcasting. Magadan advertisers are given an excellent opportunity to reach a quality resource on an all-Russian scale and radically increase the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns. I note that "Caribou" was broadcast by "Russkoe Radio" many years ago, so the network partner is very familiar to us. Congratulations to the entire Caribou Media Holding team and all Magadans on this great event! Listen to Russkoe Radio and Radio Caribou Art and enjoy great music and quality content! We work for you. Everything will be fine! Magadan was the only capital of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation where Russkoe Radio was not represented. Now the slogan "From Magadan to Dzhigan" of the advertising campaign of Radio Big Country sounds completely justified! Today, more than 3200 cities are tuned to the wave of Russkoe Radio!

"We are categorically opposed to the idea of digitalization of radio," Wolin said at NATEXPO, answering a question about the development of digital radio. He told what, in his opinion, the transition of the radio to digital format could lead to. "If we are talking about digital radio, we mean the transition of radio to digital format, which will allow us to increase the number of existing radio stations. We can't think of anything more effective for killing the radio market, so we are categorically opposed to digitalizing the radio and increasing the number of players by this market. Such a number of players will not overwhelm our market, "Volin explained his position (source - URL: https://ria.ru/20191106/1560635362.html (11/21/19) (V. Gulyaev. Broadcast news.

"In order to maintain and strengthen the audience and revenue markets, we need to work in three directions. We need to develop products to increase the content competitiveness in the media market. We need to build an audience through a high-quality technological presence in digital environments. And, finally, develop new client services and technology planning and placement of radio advertising, "said Andrei Romanchenko. According to him, the Academy expects the state to directly participate in the regulation of the industry. First of all, it is necessary to legislatively define the term "radio" and limit the possibilities of its use to online services that do not meet the definition. An important topic of the report was the creation of the industrial radio platform RADIOPLAYER.RU - an aggregator of all licensed radio stations in Russia. It is expected that the aggregator will help form a single point of entry for consumers into the online and digital automotive systems. The conference brought together 200 radio industry professionals from Russia and from five foreign countries: Australia, Belarus, Great Britain, Germany and Uzbekistan (source - URL: https: //moscow.rtrs.ru/press/news/andrey-romanchenko-predstavil-strategiyu-razvitiyaindustrii-radio/ (11.21.19) (V.

(Gennady Vedernikov) -------------------------------------------- Gathering material about the fate of broadcasting radio stations of the so-called "powerful broadcasting", I thought for a long time, what reminds me of the history of these modern structures of the time, cyclopean in size? And finally I realized - this is a modern version of the legendary Atlantis - which sank below sea level to the bottom of the sea, gradually disappearing from people's memory, remaining in fragmentary messages of ancient historians. Indeed, together with the USSR, giant transmitting and receiving radio centers, located, as a rule, several tens of kilometers from cities, having their own residential villages, their infrastructure, their bosses (as a rule, in Moscow), their curators from the KGB, disappeared from the air too the enemy did not know what was being done there ... As you know, the counterintelligence regime in the USSR was very tough, which can be understood - there were only enemies behind the Iron Curtain. Therefore, the simple builders of communism only occasionally saw among the woods on the horizon, traveling by train or in a car, cyclopic antennas, balls of radiolucent material covering the huge satellite dishes. And near them - barbed wire fences, guard dogs, stern silent SECRETARY soldiers at the checkpoint without a sign, try to ask them what is there? You won't get into trouble ...

"Yes, we intend (to register a legal entity in the Russian Federation. - Note. Interfax). We have already received clarifications from the Ministry of Justice on the registration procedure and this week submitted all the necessary documents to the tax authorities of the Russian Federation," Shary said on Thursday, responding to an agency request. He specified that Radio Liberty would be enough to register only one legal entity in Russia, and not for each project separately. Earlier, Shary stated that the media corporation Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty intends to comply with all requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation. Shary emphasized that Radio Liberty is independent of any media. "As a person who has been working for Svoboda for a long time, I can assure you that we do not carry out any instructions from any foreign governments, we are not agents of any government. We have an independent editorial policy, the intervention of which is forbidden to American officials, as you know, "said Shary. In turn, Jamie Fly, president of the Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty media corporation, considers the inclusion of RFE / RL projects in the register of media agents "an attempt to silence independent media in Russia and deprive the audience of access to information that is not under the control of the Kremlin." "US laws guarantee PCE / PC editorial independence. Any suggestion that we or our journalists are agents of any government is false," he said in a statement. On December 2, 2019, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law on additional regulation of media-foreign agents, according to which individuals can be recognized as foreign agents distributing messages of media-foreign agents or participating in their creation. According to the provisions of the law, "an individual or a Russian legal entity distributing messages and materials created and distributed by a foreign media acting as a foreign agent, or a Russian legal entity established by a foreign foreign media agent and / or participating in the creation of these communications and materials may be deemed to act as a foreign agent. "This applies to cases where such a person receives money or other property from foreign states, their state bodies, international and foreign organizations, foreign citizens, stateless persons or persons authorized by them, from foreign media that perform the functions of a foreign agent, Russian legal entities established by foreign media agents, Russian legal entities receiving money or other property from the indicated sources, or from Russian legal entities established by such foreign media Law (34552 3-7) stipulates that a Russian legal entity must establish a Russian legal entity within one month from the date of recognition as such. Publications already in the register of foreign agents will be required to create a Russian legal entity by February 1, 2020. Publications of the relevant media will be accompanied by an indication of the fact that they were created by a foreign agent is stipulated by the law.The fine for violations is up to 5 million rubles (article 19.34.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses) According to the Ministry of Justice, today 10 foreign media are recognized as foreign agents in Russia: Voice of America, Radio Free Europe / Radio Svo ode (PCE / PC), its projects "Idel.Realities", "Kavkaz.Realiy", "Crimea.Realiy", the Tatar- Bashkir service of Radio "Freedom" (Azatliq Radiosi), "Sibir.Realiy", "Sever.Realiya "and" Factograph ", as well as a joint project of RS and Voice of America - the TV channel" Present. "The law on media agents was criticized in the European Parliament and in the USA. They concluded that the law" can be used to suppress independent votes. "" We urge Russia to abide by its commitment to freedom of expression, which [Russian Foreign Minister Sergey] Lavrov reiterated [November 6, 2019] at an OSCE conference, "Morgan Ortegus, head of the US State Department press service wrote on Twitter. The Russian embassy in Washington responded to Ortegus's record urging the United States to stop violating Russian sovereignty."

The civil war ended in the defeat of the anti-Bolshevik armies and emigration from Russia. But the struggle between the Reds and the Whites continued in other forms. The losers on the battlefield failed to achieve military assistance and a new intervention of European states. And a protracted information war began. Against this background, white officers during the 1920s. from time to time they launched terrorist operations - saboteurs were thrown into the USSR who tried to rekindle the extinct flame of the civil war. But the main emphasis was on the power of words - they believed that because of the hardships of life under the Soviet regime, this would work and the people would rise. First, emigrants sent leaflets and appeals of an anti-Soviet character to the USSR: by mail, through "walkers", agents, through Soviet railwaymen and sailors who appeared in Europe, among whom were campaigning. Literature was in kilograms. Until the mid-1920s it made sense. According to the OGPU, thousands of leaflets and newspapers were distributed and distributed in the USSR. In 1924, 4-5 thousand emigrant newspapers passed through the Moscow Post Office every month. The Socialist-Revolutionary Days, the Cadet Steering Wheel, and The Latest News regularly published anti-Bolshevik texts and freely wrote about what was happening in Russia. In 1925, the OGPU alone in Moscow in January detained more than 9 thousand newspapers and magazines, in February - 7 thousand. However, by vigorous efforts at the post office and border, the KGB officers stopped the flow of "foreign counter-revolutionary newspapers" by the end of the year. The emigrants had to look for a new way to appeal to the Russian people. The Brotherhood of Russian Truth: the first warriors on the air. The irreconcilable emigrants, who continued to struggle against Bolshevism with all their might, created numerous organizations for this purpose. One of them - the Brotherhood of Russian Truth - had until 1940 a strong cell in Latvia, not far from the border with Russia. Among the "brothers" there were many monarchists, officers, as well as priests, students, teachers and writers. The idea of organizing broadcasting from here seemed to lie on the surface. St. Petersburg historian P.N. Bazanov, who studied the history of the PDL, writes that it was the "brothers" who were led by Major General Prince A.P. Liven who were the first to organize an anti-Soviet radio station broadcasting in the USSR in Russian (long before the BBC, " Voices of America and the Radio Liberty during the Cold War. They opened it in 1926 in the town of Rezekne (Rezhitsa) in a house on Sadovaya Street. The transmitter was built by the local Kulibin, the young Vsevolod Kudryavtsev. For four years, emigrants broadcast articles from Russians newspapers and magazines published in Europe, as well as news Patriotic records were played with national songs, if the programs were arranged during the day, the station covered 1,200 km, and at night up to 2,500 km. So the owners of the receivers in Belarus and the Pskov region could enjoy the forbidden fruit - criticism of Bolshevism. Radio invited Soviet citizens to get in touch Occasionally, one of the radio operators of the army and navy or just radio amateurs gathered courage and did it: periodically, the "brothers" received very short messages like "The people are starving, they take bread," etc. Emigrants hid from the Latvian police. The authorities of the USSR not only jammed the broadcasts (because of this it was often necessary to change the wave of broadcasting), but also demanded that Latvia not allow the activities of anti-Soviet organizations on its territory. Kudryavtsev, who served the station, in case of discovery even got a certificate of mental inferiority in order to avoid punishment. In the early 1930s, when the "radio sabotage" of the PDUs increased due to the powerful new radio station, the Latvian police arrested and expelled several "brothers" from the country. The station had to be smuggled out to Riga and sold there. The Government of Czechoslovakia: an ally in the radio fight. But the idea of a radio wave has not died. From time to time, projects for its renewal appeared. For example, they suggested building a radio yacht that would transmit to the USSR from the Black and Baltic Seas; and the emigrant Boris Sokolov intended to start broadcasting from Brussels. But the next time the emigrants managed to organize an expensive business only in 1933 with the support of Czechoslovakia. The relations of this state with the USSR (which the Czechs did not recognize until the summer of 1934) were strained, and emigrants were welcomed since the 1920s quite friendly. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, helping the emigration, obviously hoped to get something later from the USSR in exchange for ending the "war on the air". According to historian M. Sokolov, who studied the anti-Bolshevik radio project in Prague, emigrants believed that in the USSR more than 1 million receivers could receive a signal from abroad. Moreover, their owners - mainly the Soviet elite and employees, that is, the support of the regime - are the best object for broadcasting. Among the employees, they hoped to find disappointed in the Soviet regime (the emigrants were not mistaken in this). And through them, - fighters against Bolshevism believed, - criticism of the Soviet regime will reach the broad masses of inhabitants. Broadcasting from Prague began in 1933, when the USSR also transmitted communist lectures to Czechoslovakia in Czech. A radio fight was led by a friend of Russian emigrants, a man who knew Russia well and had been there many times - Professor Jan Slavik. Boris Alekseevich Evreinov, a Russian historian, liberal, and participant in the Civil War, became his assistant and excellent speaker. First, they transmitted radio-lectures for 20 minutes every two weeks (and then every week) on Friday evenings. Slavik and Evreinov uncovered the lies of the Soviet authorities, criticized censorship, the actual abolition of political and civil rights and freedoms, reported slave labor of prisoners, political departments, Soviet science, party purges, compared the lives of workers in the USSR and Czechoslovakia - salaries, prices, rights. "On the sign we read" socialism, "" the workers 'and peasants' state, "and behind the sign are disgusting serfdom and general hunger," the radio broadcast. Slavik and Evreinov received letters from different cities of Russia and Ukraine. One listener wrote, "It was nice to hear about things that we have no right to even think about. After all, we have such despotism that the world has not seen. " People complained about the Soviet regime and reported that despite the terrible noise on the air due to the jamming of the Prague station, they caught every word of Evreinov and regretted the brevity of the programs. The author of one of the letters wrote about the jamming: "You once said that they were afraid, and therefore they interfere. Tell them again that they are cowards vile, afraid of the truth and mocking the peaceful miserable population. " Successful programs could not but arouse the anger of Moscow. In 1934, relations with Czechoslovakia began to improve, and the Czech Foreign Ministry made Slavik criticize the USSR less sharply. And later broadcasting ceased. Emigrants thought about creating an independent radio. Unfortunately, the inspirer of this idea - who did not need to be introduced by A. I. Guchkov - did not manage to realize it. In 1935, he became seriously ill, and the next year he died. Other European states did not look for quarrels with the USSR, and before the start of the Cold War, new radio projects did not appear.
